[Killer Whale Tank]

OK...what do we think of the way Downie's singing has evolved over the years? He's gone from a more gutteral, leather-lunged style (filled with expectorations like the 'BLAKH!' in the middle of Blow at High Dough) to a more fragile-sounding, warbly style with echoes of Geddy Lee on 'Heart of the Melt.' Which Gord do you prefer? Why?
